Call me a snob, but I much prefer grayscale color settings lately on Windows 10.Even films and videos look better then. I friggin' grew up watching b&w television. Not your horrible boomer, just not american.
man who thinks he's interesting says "yes i love gray"
Same here, but openSUSE Linux, KDE-Plasma and green highlights.
fuck thati just yank the contrast until everything is burned out blobsshits fucking kinoi hate everything so it works out
PS is for editing one still frame, how do you do this effect in sony vegas or after effects
>>453187Color curves, contrast/saturation
>>453187You create a mask for the girl then change tje background
>>453187You literally copy the whites/highlights/midtones/shadows/Blacks for your luminetry. Look up how grading works.
>>453187It can't be done, it's too computationally expensive (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem). You just have to shoot a movie like this to have it. If it doesn't look like you want, try to adjust the lighting.
probably can achieve it with a lut
Is there a specific name for this effect? I want to adjust the background color in my video to match the pic related version - all background colors changed into green. P.S: Wouldn't mind explanation on the effects used on the character of the image related
>>456039you are really useless
>>456043Yet somehow you managed to post something even more useless.Congratulations!
>>456044I wanna add to the chain of uselessness as well! yaaaaaay

Hi guys, does anyone have any clue how to begin with this style/procedure? I'm a wallpaper designer but this looks challenging, and I'd suck some ass just to know anything. Thanks!
>>456099Looks like Photoshop + something for particles, maybe C4D or similar?
Early 2000s webdesign
>>445926>>445988>>445989Seems like it was a cult, one of the first online-original ones. This forum thread from 2008 goes into a dive on it:https://forum.culteducation.com/read.php?12,57512Without digging into things too deep (this shit gives me the heebie jeebies and I don't wanna click too many links) it seems like the last postings from its arms were around 2015, so it probably died out near the end of the 2010s./x/ might be a better place to discuss it.Captcha: GVATT
As I grow older, my hatred for mobile design matures. Soon it will bear a fruit, I will become a computer virus and infect the internet and come for the smartphones, the iPads and the Apple watches. I will stomp out the web crawlers. I will corrupt them all. Cutting the net won't spare you, I'll become a floppy flying through your window, slashing your hard drive to bits.
>>455895God, I miss bitmap fonts.A few anons have already mentioned this, but the early flash-heavy stuff was caustic to SEO. Flash wasn't indexable, and If Google couldn't figure out what was in your website, you weren't gonna have reach on search engines.The bigger nail in the coffin was smartphones. Fat buttons and emphasis on verticality was needed for grubby fingers and scrolling, and managing two completely different versions of a website is annoying, so desktop designs were merged with mobile.I think with all the tools we have now, we could easily mimic the experimental websites of yore, even improve upon them with two extra decades of knowledge - but that's too much work!
>>456410>I think with all the tools we have now, we could easily mimic the experimental websites of yore, even improve upon them with two extra decades of knowledge - but that's too much work!too much work AND companies are salivating at the thought of casual desktop usage fully dying out in favor of universal smartphone browsing, so they're definitely not going to be making any cool desktop-oriented websites anytime soon when they could instead be making ugly corporate memphis mobile websites that are really just huge ads to get people to download their app.and honestly, it's also a shame that most of the newer sites i see from hobbyists that are interested in this era (e.g. on places like neocities) just take what was done in the past wholesale without trying to improve on it with the advances in web development that have come since, and that leaves a shitton of bloated and/or ugly imitations of bloated and/or ugly sites from the past. companies wouldn't budge regardless, but a lot of old web revival projects really aren't making a "revival" look like something to be excited for.
>>456411>that are really just huge ads to get people to download their appPrecisely.Startups have always been about building something up rapidly and then selling off the company to the highest bidder, so the founders and investors can get their bag ASAP. However, "startup culture" used to be about actually-innovating in ways the big slow companies (both what preceded the FAANGs and then the early days of that hegemony) couldn't. That rapidly changed as these behemoths actually unfucked themselves. THAT was probably due to Google's "experimental" nature showing you can just live A-B test shit with users and they will bitch but not leave in big enough numbers. As well as a lot of startups spamming growth and big innovative promises and a flashy frontend only to deliver absolute crap code that costs more to fix than to just copy - Skype may have been the biggest lemon sold here, but I could be wrong and it may have been something else earlier, before I was actually paying attention to this shit.Details aside, startups NOW mostly seem to be hell-bent on collecting user data, the product is just a vector to get people to sign away their permission for data collection, so it only has to be "good enough" and last long enough to fit company's projected sale.>But the privacy policy says "we don't sell your data"!!That's the neat trick:They don't.They sell the whole company when it's ripe and ready for market, and with it ALL the company's assets - including the user data that their app and wifi-connected toasters and smart bidets and so on have picked up. That is how they have value now and why everything is app-connected.So, word of wisdom: If you want to do some big project you're passionate about, then crowdfunding or traditional business loans are the better option. VC and angel investors are just interested in getting their ROI ASAP and that involves you losing control of your project.
Not sure if this belongs here but since it's regarding photo manipulation (which counts as graphic design) I might as well try.So I like this genre of edits of women called "Natural/Modular Body Magic", which basically means that they look like they either had their heads magically removed or that they never had any at all but they can live just fine without them (like dullahans), but many of them are pretty shit so I wanted to make some good ones of my own, the problem is that there are no good tutorials online on how to make them, so I was wondering if you guys could guide me on how to make them.Pic related is more or less what I want to achieve, something that looks relatively natural and organic, rather than just a quick and sloppy MS paint job.
>>454233Why would you admit to using that shithole??
>>447445try buying and taking photos of manikins in the same position as the photos you are editing that way you have some sort of reference. i do think the flat neck looks better then a rounded knob. idk how you woud do the texture on the skin to be honest
>>448181you absolute retard
what even
this is actually pretty based. good job OP
What political movements have the best-designed symbols?
>>456276Oh yeah, the Gay New World Order flag.
>>455561Libertarians can have amazing gd when they aren't obsessed with the Gadsden flag.(Attached: Libertarianism.org logo)
>>455562"RACISTS FOR REFUGEES" makes it sound like you're slandering simps for mass illegal immigration as racist lol. which they are of course, but that's not what you're trying to convey.>>455626I'm a radical anti-monarchist but you may have a point

>>456128Why 4chan has no ontopic threads anymore? Is this the result of 2003 hl2 beta leakage on /v/? The cia has stolen valve internal assets. As we know binladen been gaming a lot. Hl2 leakage disturbed him, he was angry. Sent some cia drone planes filled with tannerite and nitryl acid and blee up the towers. The worst incident since release of gta 3. The programming destroyed /v/ beyond repair. This led to creation of reddit due its founder being cia agent involved in that incident. And reddit mafia wasnt happy. They shitposted hard at trump during 2016 election. But george soros helped him win and reddit trannies malded and migrated to /pol/. Later they went on /qa/ and created basedjaks. They dilated themselfs so hard that czech anon organized raid on /lgbt/. There were many casualities on both sides but finally /qa/ lost and got nuked by hiroshito. They then created sharty and sent thier best assasin to shoot trump during his rally. In the last moment shinzo abe went down from heavens and saved trump. Biden sharted himself and bailed out and thats how kamala wom 2024 presidential ellections.
Give it to me straight, lads. How is the move from Adobe to Affinity? And how does Affinity square up with Photoshop?
>>455500forgot to mention that we can't even use the 2017 version of Quark because it's a piece shit software and we have to use a 25 years old version, with a dedicated PC running Windows 95 just for this reason.
>>455500>>455501QXP 4? That's just too wild for me, but my old design firm was still using MS office 2007 until I quit in 2017, so there's that. Old people I swear
>>455503either 4 or 5. but yeah, avarage age at the company is around 50. The other editor uses Ps 6 because, even though we have a never one "he likes to do things manually".Which translates into absolute bonkers workflows like not using masks, groups, hell the layers are just a huge unorganised mess, no naming, no logical structuring, and half of them are empty text layers because he accidentally created one.
>>455437For clarification I've also had issues with multiple rasters, even <1mb JPEGs, opening about 8 and I'm already running out of application memory.
>>455375any tutorial makers that can get me up to speed with the Affinity?
Is it retarded to use fountain pens?
>>456366bro showing a picture of a fountain pen's mess like that is probably the most effective succinct attack against those pens.
>>456367dude. just take a look at the linked image ONCE. >>455171they are a noob and used pigment paint. shit.doesn't.happen.if you aren't retarded and use adequate materials for your level.
>>456368Jesus Christ you dunce I'm not against fountain pens. I'm just saying >>454722 is incredibly effective propaganda against them. Propaganda isn't usually entirely truthful lololol
>>456370>a retarded, outdated penmade me think you fall for the 'propaganda'. but nvm - we on the same page it seems
>>454722yesmy pen is often messy and fussydont carelove it
hmmm somehow thats not how i imagined it
Hi, Ive been into graphic design for a while, and I really feel like I wanna start doing my own thing instead of just admiring others pieces, where do I start? What book is best to read for the fundamentals? How should I actually build my own style? Anything helps, maybe its not the best place to ask idk, but I feel like some of you guys got a good grip of whats good and not. :)(piece by Visual bleed)
>>453732besides learning fundamentals, reading books and so on (which is incredibly important), the best way to start doing your own thing is...by starting to actually do something. it doesn't matter what, and your first pieces are most likely going to look like shit, but just like any other skill on this planet, the more you do it, the better you'll get at itgood luck!
>>453764Are there any resources on the fundamentals which you can recommend?
>>454190Read anything from Bruno Munari
Read the books by Wucius Wong.
>>455616Bought his book "Design in Art" for 8 shmucks. Been looking for a book published during the peak years of design for a while. Thanks for the recommendation anon.
>soul? check>inherent optimism towards technology backed into design of products and physical spaces? check >corporate? yes, but not in a soul sucking way
>>456394Stop using that vague label anon and do some real research.
>>456394The graphical aesthetic or whatever the interior design of this era was?
>>456394>>445598>>452605>>456053>>445831just saying...
>>456394The optimism for the tech was because there were clear improvments from one piece of hardware to the next. There has been little leaps forward for the last half or so decade.Aesthetics are large in part riding off of what the masses are feeling and many aren't feeling too optimistic about the future. Maybe things will change in a few months who knows, but an aesthetic will only catch on if it somehow captures what people are feeling.
ITT: We post mid-to-late 2000s graphic design styles, visual trends, and aesthetics.Anything between 2005 and 2012 (or anything that is reminiscent of that era) is welcome here. THIS IS NOT A Y2K THREAD. DO NOT POST Y2K HERE.Previous: >>445568

Hey /gd/I have a question, if I produce images using illegal versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, do these images have any metadata that can be tracked to see if they were illegally produced?and how do I remove such metadata, I tried googling this shit but it doesn't come up with any real answers on this topicI'm just getting to the point of completing my 4th as well as 5th gd project for my portfolio and want to upload them all to Behance but also still not cause any problems for potential employers.thanksAlso post your questions/queries
>>444978Im old school and trace over it with a vector
>>444877>what kind of art is this reallyModern art I guess can you let me know what's wrong with this painting?There is nothing wrong with them. It’s not particularly catching, but that’s a personal preference. If it was part I’d a series in a gallery that would help it stand out more next to other similar works by the artist showcasing their style and it helps you ponder their work. If they had a goal in mind can you let me know their goal so I can let you know if they achieved it or not. >make the main subject of the painting stands out from the backgroundLook at different framing techniques, rule of thirds, or fourths, bull’s-eye effect, Fibonacci, putting some thing in the foreground or background.
>>447306You don’t need an art program for that. Just look up pattern making for sewing projects
>>447102Maybe put it through one of those Minecraft image converter for creating pixel art in Minecraft and instead of working with bricks inside the game you can place a grid over a canvas and use the corresponding colors to squares
>>456383I didn't expect this to be so easy, now I have all he fonts i want.
